    Abstract
    Backgrounds: Radioimmunotherapy (RIT) serves as a targeted therapy for non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL). Although HIF(Hypoxia-inducible factors)-1α is an important biomarker during radiation therapy, its role in NHL is unclear. Atorvastatin (ATV) is used as a combination drug for chemotherapy.

    Methods: We investigated whether ATV downregulated tumor radio-resistance and enhanced the anticancer effect of 131I-RTX (rituximab) in Raji xenograft mouse models. First, the increased uptake and enhanced therapeutic effect of 131I-RTX by ATV was confirmed using molecular imaging in Raji xenograft subcutaneous model and orthotropic model with SPECT and IVIS images. Second, we examined the profile of differentially expressed miRNAs using miRNA array.

    Results: We found that miR-346 inhibited HIF-1α/VEGF (Vascular endothelial growth factor) during ATV combination therapy with 131I-RTX. The underlying mechanism of ATV involved induction of anti-angiogenesis and radiosensitivity by downregulating HIF-1α in Raji cells.

    Conclusion: Our findings suggested that combination therapy with ATV and 131I-RTX is a promising strategy for enhancing the potency of 131I-RTX therapy in poorly responding patients and those with radio-resistance.

  • 연구소개
    방사면역치료는 방사선치료 효과와 표적항체에 의한 면역작용 효과가 결합한 치료로서, 표적항체를 이용하여 암세포에만 방사선을 조사해 정상세포에 미치는 방사선 영향을 최소화하여 암 치료 효과가 높은 첨단 방사선치료 분야입니다. 암세포는 증식하는 과정에서 쉽게 저산소증 상태가 되는데, 저산소 상황에서는 방사선치료가 어려워지는 문제가 있습니다. 이 연구에서는 아토르바스타틴이 저산소 상황을 극복하여 방사면역치료 효과를 증진시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 림프종 종양 세포를 살상하는 효과가 있어서 최종적으로 방사성요오드가 표지된 리툭시맙의 치료효과를 증진시킬 수 있음을 제시하고, 이 과정은 micro RNA 346이 증가했기 때문임을 밝혔습니다.
